Update: the book club has finished. Below are links for each week's discussion.

Praise for The Secret of the Yoga Sutra

 

Pandit Tigunait’s commentary on the Yoga Sutra offers us a true mystical transmission of the inner teachings of this classic text . . . The power of his experience and knowledge radiates through these pages.                —Sally Kempton, author of Meditation for the Love of It and Awakening Shakti

 

This straightforward, easy-to-understand translation lays out traditional concepts in a way that makes them accessible to anyone. I intend to continue using this book for my personal studies, as well as recommend it to all my students.                 —Seane Corn, Co-founder of Off the Mat, Into the World  

Pandit Tigunait’s brilliant new commentary on the Yoga Sutra is destined to become a classic. From its very first pages, the reader can feel the hand of a master. . .This commentary is not just about yoga. It is yoga. The worldwide yoga community is greatly in debt to Panditji.

                —Stephen Cope, MSW, Founder of the Kripalu Institute for Extraordinary Living and author of Yoga and the Quest for the True Self

The Secret of the Yoga Sutra book club is designed to guide you through the central themes found in the book as you build a working understanding of the concepts, philosophy, and practices illuminated by Pandit Tigunait. During these seven weeks, the book’s editor, Deborah Willoughby, will help you explore, contemplate, and discuss this living text that leads us into an ever-deepening experience of our most powerful selves.

You will receive an email each week linking you to a summary of the sutras to be read that week, questions to ponder on those sutras, and a sample discussion (by audio recording) of the same sutras. We hope you'll join the conversation by posting your comments and questions, to which Deborah will respond. If you are a teacher and would like to host your own book club, these materials will give you the basics you need to get started!
